The decision referral system will be used in the Caribbean premier league for the first time when it is introduced for the semi-final and final of this year's tournament.

Drs will be used in the semi-final and final of this year's Caribbean premier league.

Chief operating officer, Pete Russell, said the decision had been taken so to ensure that "all decisions are as accurate as possible". He added that they are reviewing the possibility of making DRS available for all matches in 2019.

Each team will have one unsuccessful review per innings and will be able to review all types of dismissals.

There have been several controversial decisions during this year's Cpl which have brought the umpiring under scrutiny.

Twenty-nine matches have been played in this year's Cpl with the semi-final set for September 14 and the final two days later.
